Archery Season - Get Your Hunt On!
BY: Tony Young, FWC September 2010

Even though you can hardly tell, summer is officially over. Kids have returned to school, and hunting season’s already been going on for a month now in South Florida. Finally, the time of year we’ve been waiting for is upon us – the beginning of archery season. More . . .





Register for hunter safety and get ready for opening day!
BY: Tony Young, FWC August 2010

With dog-days of summer fully upon us, it's hard to think about hunting. But if you're between the ages of 16 and 35, and haven't completed the state's hunter safety course requirement, now's the time to be thinking about it. If you've been putting off taking a hunter safety class, August is the best time to sign up for one in your area. More . . .





Join the Dove Club BY: Tony Young, FWC July 2010

To me, the best part about hunting is not harvesting game but spending quality time in the outdoors with friends and family. One of the best ways to do just that is through dove hunting. More . . .





Quota Permit Hunts - Apply June 1-30, 2010 BY: Tony Young June 2010

Every hunter knows you have the best chance of catching a monster buck off-guard during the first part of hunting season. That’s why many of us enjoy hunting the archery and muzzleloading gun seasons – and why we can’t miss opening weekend of the general gun season. More . . .





Up your odds with a special-opportunity hunt BY: Tony Young May 2010

If you haven't been seeing the quantity or quality of game you'd like, you may want to consider applying for a special-opportunity hunt. For the past 13 years, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has offered these unique fall-season hunts for deer, wild hog and released quail on the state's best public hunting lands. Maybe it's time you look into getting in on the action and experience the hunt of a lifetime.

Ducks – more than they’re quacked up to be
BY: Tony Young
March 29, 2010

Well, I hope all you turkey hunters in the South Hunting Zone took a nice bird or two this year, as your season is coming to a close. For those of us in the rest of the state, we still have until April 25 to bag us a good long-beard. But after spring gobbler season, there’s really not much hunting to talk about, so I’d like to tell you about another bird – one that needs our help.

Talkin' Turkey
By: Tony Young
March, 2010

If you haven't already started, it's time to brush up on your turkey calling, 'cause spring gobbler season's here. Whether you prefer to use a mouth call, box call, slate or any combination, March means it's time to start talkin' turkey. More . . .



Not so fast! Deer season's not over yet
By: Tony Young
February 2010

Thus far, this deer season has been pretty good to me as far as quantity goes. I shot two does during doe week, and I got my season limit on fall gobblers, but I have yet to even see horns, much less harvest a buck. But I still have plenty of room left in my freezer, and I'm not throwing in the towel just yet. After all, there are still lots of hunting days left in my neck of the woods, and my game camera's still taking pictures of some pretty good bucks. More hunting articles . . .



That Coon Dog'll Hunt
By: Tony Young
January 2010

Some of my huntin’ buddies and I really live for being out in a wet patch of woods in the middle of a cool night and hearing the not-so-distant sounds of our coon hounds when they open up on a hot trail. There’s just something about those hounds’ voices that sounds both pleasing and eerie at the same time. More hunting articles. . . .
